Garden Hose Thread (GHT) is not compatible with National Pipe Thread (NPT). For example, 3/4" GHT is not the same as 3/4" NPT. The female side of this camlock will NOT thread onto a male garden hose or garden hose faucet.
Type "A" polypropylene 3/4 inch male camlock (Cam & Groove) coupler to 3/4 inch female NPT threads.
Under no circumstances should cam and groove couplings be used for compressed air or steam service!
Connections
- The male side of this adapter will only connect to 3/4 inch female camlock
- The female threaded side of this adapter will only connect to a 3/4 inch male National Pipe Tapered (NPT) thread, for example, PVC or metal pipe fitting
Warning: Polypropylene cam & groove should not be mixed with metal fittings. We recommend using polypropylene with other poly, plastic, pvc, banjo type camlock fittings.
How it works
- To make a connection, simply slide the camlock adapter into the camlock coupling and with normal hand pressure, press the cam levers down.
- Uncoupling is as quick and simple as coupling. Just lift the cam arms and remove the adapter.
Cam and groove couplings, also called camlock fittings or quick connect fittings, are used in most industries as a hose connection to avoid leakage. The cam lock type of coupling is popular because it is considered to be a simple and economical way to reconnect and disconnect.
